TREXPO EAST 2006 NEW Advisory Board Members Announced
Lt.
Col. Dave Grossman and David Narkevicius Join TREXPO
Advisory Board
TORRANCE, Calif., August 23, 2006 - - TREXPO is pleased
to announce the appointment of two new members to its
Advisory Board: Lt. Col. Dave Grossman and David Narkevicius.
These seasoned professionals bring invaluable experience
and insight to the TREXPO advisory board and will assist
the existing members in bringing the most pertinent information
on law enforcement training and education to the two
growing annual TREXPO events, TREXPO East and TREXPO
West.
Lt.
Col. Grossman is an Airborne Ranger infantry officer,
and a prior-service sergeant and paratrooper, with a
total of over 23 years experience in leading U.S. soldiers
worldwide. He retired from the Army in February 1998
and has devoted himself full-time to teaching, writing,
speaking, and research. Grossman is an internationally
recognized scholar, author, soldier, and speaker, and
one of the world's foremost experts in the field of human
aggression and the roots of violence and violent crime.
He has combined his experiences to become the founder
of a new field of scientific endeavor, which has been
termed “killology.”
“TREXPO presents an excellent opportunity to address
the growth in terror and other attacks, to increase the
awareness in the tactical response industry, and to train
(elite) military and law enforcement organizations,” said
Dave Grossman. “Their event is a unique combination
of educational sessions and real-live environment training,
together with a demonstration of the latest products.”
Dave Narkevicius is the founding member and a senior instructor
with the Personal Security Institute (PSI), which is
dedicated to the research and training of self defense
skills and tactics. He has trained with numerous schools
and institutes in pistol, shotgun, carbine, knife, self
defense law, self defense mindset, and other personal
defensive skill sets and tools. Narkevicius is certified
as a Concealed Carry Pistol Instructor by SigArms Academy
and a founding member of the Counter Carjacking Working
Group and is currently serving as a Senior Staff Advisor
in the Office Secretary of Defense. [link to bio on web]
“I look forward to contributing to TREXPO’s
vision of offering the law enforcement tactical community,
patrol officers, and private security and executive protection
organizations the latest information and training necessary
to perform their challenging missions,” said Narkevicius.
“Each of our new advisors has a background extremely
relevant to our objective of enabling law enforcement
to share the latest information and training experience
quickly and completely. Lt. Col. Dave Grossman and David
Narkevicius bring deep understanding of military and
special operations, and an exceptional knowledge of the
needs of the law enforcement communities, and are known
and respected internationally in these communities,” said
Jim Stalnaker, TREXPO's advisory board member. “They
are stellar additions to an already impressive group
of advisors.”
